Is too much fibre bad for a fast metabolism?
Fibre could be responsible for the fast transit of your food. Wholegrain cereal will speed up digestive transit time. Fruit contains enymes that will help digestion. In the UK, people are encouraged to eat at least 24g of fibre a day. The average vegan has over double the recommended daily fibre intake (nearly 50g), because vegan foods tend to be bulky. With regards to bowel movements, if your usual, typical bathroom trip is 2/3 times a day; and you are not suffering from digestive upsets/cramps- there is no need to worry. (A high fibe diet may only be a problem for those with Irritable Bowel Syndrome). To me it seems like your body is working efficiently. You say you have 7 portions of fruit and vegetables per day- which is fantastic! If you are not having digestive discomfort- keep it up, it’s healthy.
